This subject fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSIC. There isn't enough significant, independent coverage by reliable sources to support an encyclopedic biography. Most sources are excessively local blogs, both amateur and newsy, as well as interviews. JFHJr ( ㊟) 01:50, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Bands and musicians, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. Skynxnex ( talk) 01:57, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- Delete not seeing coverage to meet WP:MUSICBIO. His name is a common one so many namesakes come up on gnews. LibStar ( talk) 02:46, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect to Cape Breton International Drum Festival, which already mentions this subject, as WP:ATD-R. No issues with WP:V for such. — siro χ o 05:21, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. Article claims absolutely nothing about his career that would be "inherently" notable enough per WP:NMUSIC to exempt him from having to pass WP:GNG on the sourcing, but with only one footnote he hasn't been demonstrated to pass GNG. Bearcat ( talk) 14:16, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- Delete: Fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSIC. Unverified info. ––– GMH MELBOURNE TALK 05:05, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
- Delete since subject fails both WP:GNG and WP:NCREATIVE, a fact that has no relation whatsoever with their musical ability. - The Gnome ( talk) 15:05, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
